Hacking Obtaining badges after eShop closure

[AvatarNeo]

So, the 3DS and Wii U eShops are shutting down soon, as everyone knows. After March 27, you can't add funds to either account. This means services like Nintendo Badge Arcade will likely be shut down. Even if it wasn't shut down, being unable to pay for plays would make obtaining badges extremely tedious. (Currently you can only get about 3-4 free plays per day.)

So, is there any way to just get choice badges for free? Not custom badges, the real, Nintendo-produced ones. I've heard of infinite-try cheat codes, but those result in a ban.

If you want to buy anything on the 3ds eshop buy it before the 27th if you have any fund.

Idk where, but I am 99% sure you can look for original ones online that can be used with any custom badge loader. If you can't, I'm not sure.

I'm pretty sure someone posted a link of basically all the badge images. Can't remember which post...
